Think of Duke UPDATE

Prayers for Duke.

[WELOVESPUPPIES]

Thanks everyone. We just got back. The vet said he does not feel anything in there, nor can he see anything. Duke apparently swallowed something that did get stuck but he managed to get it loose himself but it scratched his throat on the way down. His throat is extremely red and irritated and he has a lot of phlegm built up in the back of his mouth. They gave him a steroid for the swelling and an antihistamine to help control the cough so that he does not keep irritating his throat and an antibiotic to prevent any infection. He just finished his dog food, which I put water on to make it softer so he would eat and is now lying down next to my desk on his pillow sleeping. Thank God it was nothing serious, this is my baby, my heart dog and just the thought....OMGosh just makes me sick to my stomach. I still feel horrible, I know he is my responsibility and I just cannot believe that I allowed this to happen. Thank you all again.

Poor guy, glad to know it's nothing serious!

You don't have to feel horrible! Things like these happen when you have dogs, sometimes there's not much we can do. (((hugs)))
